Very nice video, and diving work. I'm going to call you Spiderman, from here on in. Manual CCR I'll assume, and looks like a nice PO2 display. Nice work! We'll look for more of your progress. I've seen that DSV recently...., and it looks like the mouth piece rotates?

It looks like you can see the CL in the ass end of the breather... not sure how much that tells you about anything.

I would say it is another example of an RB-80 clone converted and mod'd to closed circuit. We can see the steel straps down the side a clear sign and the counter lung movement in the bottom. This unit also has the typical gas additions in the side. In the RB-80 the gas was taken into a dual counterlung with a smaller counterlung sitting in a larger. The problems in the past have been one way valve failures that lead to problems. If I had to guess we have a single counterlung with an APEK modified over pressure valve and this is simply an over pressure dump valve.
The mouthpiece is similar to the French unit with a 45 degree turn in mounting. Best of luck in the design and it will be interesting to see if it comes to market.
